That was my thought....That's incredible. That's about 16,000 miles a month! You da man.
Not only is it incredible but it's total BULLSHIT since the earliest he could have bought the bike was July of '07. That means he put 20K to 24K a month on the bike to this point in time, that'sBS since that would be almost 700 miles or more a day. BS

Hi everone, I was planning on buying a 08 se ultra. i read alot of problems with the 07 model. Are th e 08,s any better. All imput greatly appreciated. Thanks. Bob
If I based a purchase decision on forum feedback (a magnet for problem reporting), there are many bikes I wouldn't buy.... Hondas and their stator and cam tensioner problems, Ducatis with stalling and electrical gremlins, BMWs with final drive woes, KTM water pump problems, and on and on. Know what? They aren't issues and I've owned them all. Same for the 2007 CVO Road King here. Zero problems.

This guy is not only full of it, he isnt so bright either, do the math.

98000 miles
lets say an average speed of 50 mph which isnt bad over mixed rideing.

98000 / 50 = 1960 hours

say10 hours a day riding including stops

1960 / 10 = 196 days

1st July to date of post is around 163 days.

To get to 98000 miles in 163 days he would have to average 60 mph 10 hours a day every single day.

Thats without starting on downtime for serviceing and tyres etc.
